Note; I deliberate removed content in Description so as to pinpoint where need to be set to remove that categories that show up at frontpage. I am so sorry, if sound naive. I would have love to have it online but I want to get this working on local-machine.

Greetings Qamardeen:

I’m not certain I fully understand your issue as you described. You’re having an issue getting your short product descriptions to display as you like?

Have you also posted your question within the Virtuemart site Community Forum?

I believe you need to edit the following file.

components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-mesolite/templates/browse/includes/browse_header_category.tpl.php

Once you have located the file change the code to look like this:

<?php if( !defined( ‘_VALID_MOS’ ) && !defined( ‘_JEXEC’ ) )
die( ‘Direct Access to ‘.basename(__FILE__).’ is not allowed.’ ); ?>

<h3 style=”margin-top: 0;”>
if( $this->get_cfg( ‘showFeedIcon’, 1 ) && (VM_FEED_ENABLED == 1) ) { ?>
<a class=”vmFeedIcon” href=”/component/option,com_
/category_id,/page,shop.feed/”
title=”_(‘VM_FEED_SUBSCRIBE_TOCATEGORY_TITLE’) ?>”>
<img src=”//images/feed-icon-14×14.png”
align=”baseline” alt=”feed” border=”0″/></a>
} ?>
</h3>
<?php if( trim(str_replace( “<br />”, “” , $desc)) != “” ) { ?>

<div style=”width:100%;float:left;”>

</div>
<br class=”clr” /><br />
}
?>

<div style=”text-align:left;”>
<?php echo $navigation_childlist; ?>
</div>

I thought he wanted to add a short description within the CATEGORIES pages … but that’s a handy hack as well.

I am grateful to all who had find time to respond to my request, I had eventually upload the project at http://thecrescenthost.net/ishop/
Now, I need to remove that CATEGORIES ( along with image and categories list) with another modules from joomla modules or even ordinary Shop description.

Thanks,once again

Thanks all,
I eventually get it work out by removing the following code

echo “<br /><h3 class=”vmFieldTitle”>”.$VM_LANG->_(‘PHPSHOP_CATEGORIES’).”</h4>”;
echo $categories; ?>

in components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja_mesolite/template/common/shopIndex.tpl
